In what is being called the biggest news since September 11, and a turning point in the global war on terrorism, U.S. President Barack Obama announced that the mastermind behind 9/11, Osama Bin Laden, is dead.

According to multiple news organizations, the United States has the dead body of Osama Bin Laden in its custody. CNN reports that the U.S. had a sample of Bin Laden’s DNA on ice for just this pivotal moment in history. But despite this big news, some people who I’ve spoken too, don’t believe it’s true.

Some reporters knew about this critical development all day, but media organizations kept the news under wraps until the body was positively identified.

American forces are expected to release a picture of Osama Bin Laden’s dead body so that the Arab world has no doubt that the leader of Al Qaeda is really dead.

Morning 🙂 this may be good news but ultimately nobody wins! All those people who lost their lives on 9/11 are not coming back. so whether bin laden is dead or not, nobody wins…we’re just glad he met his fate.

Hello All.
Tra, u mighty early this morning on ya job so early? It’s a great day to be an American but Lord have mercy, this is the beginning of the end. Mother nature fighting us, terrorism at our door, Lord God bless us all. Peaceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

Obama didnt do anything, the troops did
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~And yes the troops may have been the ones to actually kill the bastard but Obama gave the order. If the mission(s) had failed, the president would be getting the blame so why shouldn’t he get the credit when it succeeded?

And didn’t realize how many Americans celebrate death, they looking like the al-Qaeda members.

Dayum, I was thinking the same thing watching them folks at Times Square. That was weird if not crazy! Not sure how I feel about Osama being dead, I would have much rather seen him captured and prosecuted..thats just me though.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
He was the mastermind behind the death of 3,000 innocent men, women, and children… Yes he deserved to die, and I hope he burns in hell *in my Samuel L. Jackson voice*

You’re on point. One would think that just after all of the deaths this past week from the tornadoes people would be more humble, but I guess not.

I feel that blacks or blacks living in America was never really a target to groups who hate America. Mainly the white, rich, and powerful were, but now since a black President ordered the killing all of us better really watch out.

I’m very happy for Obama but I still dont think this is good enough to get him the election in 2012.
Somehow I dont think anything he does will be good enough for his naysayers (as blog queen would say) 🙂

I think the celebration is more about serving justice to the many people affected by 9/11. The people who lost mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers, children, wives, & husbands have closure.

As far as Obama’s re-election, he had naysayers in 2008. People thought he didn’t have a chance then and he won by a landslide. So you never know. I won’t just rule him out because technically he doesn’t have an opponent yet.

Have any Republicans oficially stepped up and said they were going to run? Nope. They have “potential” candidtates but nothing definite.

I can’t say he won’t win if he doesn’t even have anyone competing with him. And if their candidtates consist of the like of Donald Trump that isn’t saying much in my book.

I’m not a person who will just automatically vote for him but where are my options? I don’t have any.

Wouldnt it have been better to capture him alive? Try and convict him? Wouldn’t that have been true justice?

do you know how much money that would cost the tax payers? that would bring the war str8 to the streets becuz police/military would have to try and protect him and keep him alive.for a trial. they did RIGHT by killing his azz right on da spot..

I need to see the body I dont care what they say!! I think us being allowed to see the body would be great confirmation that he really is dead.

@FLO, his head was shot and basicly his face is gone how would u recognize him? or are u talkn bout a pic before the shooting cuz im sure that was inpossible to take if he was shooting back.. no offense but most of osama people look just like him so they can show u a dead body how would u know its him?? i kinda want to see a body too but at the same time i really don’t

I agree, Even IF people did see his body (according to the report his face was pretty much blown off so how would you recognize him anyway? ) they still wouldn’t believe it because of these conspiracy theories. So does a picture of him really matter?

Bin Laden was the cause of thousands of deaths around the world. I can understand why people are rejoicing, especially those whom were victims of this demon! I think justice was FULLY served.

YESSSSS he may have caused death. And even if deep inside you feel kinda good about his death, we should not be running in the streets, partying all night because someone is dead.

can we atleast see the video of them going inside and killing him !?! seriously, how is it that they dont have video of that atleast. I need more proof, ok they say DNA confirmed it was him, but it takes child support 3 mths LOL Idk, I just dont believe it.

can we atleast see the video of them going inside and killing him !?!

Unless they had a camera on their helmets. They probably deemed it unsafe to have a camera crew filming the actual shooting.

While I distrust the gubment due to the Tuskegee experiments and many other factors I dont see why they would lie about killing him because if it weren’t true do you know how much hail would break lose

we don’t really need a video! but where’s the pictures of him before he was thrown in the sea? where’s the proof? again why do we believe everything that is told to us? I don’t trust our gov’t!!!! and don’t believe a damn thing they say!!!!! I need proof! and if there isn’t any proof, it means it didn’t happen!

I believe he dead…dont need to c it…im taken aback that there was no trial…ESP since the whole world (OTHER THAN THOSE IN UNITED STATES) believe 911 was an inside job…what better way to shut them down than to take him to trial and prove it….y because 911 was an inside job!!!!!!!! Sucked to be Osama yesterday! Now can they run up in the crib and do Bush jr & sr….and the people who became instant millionaires on all those put options against the airlines on 9/11?????? can they kill them too?????? Or was Osama working on Wall ST too????

So ppl want to see pics of this man’s half blown off face? I don’t need to see no shyt like that just to believe it. Who would want to make this up knowing there will be plenty of naysayers?!? President Obama has better things to do than to be releasing shyt every week just so ppl can “believe”.

What really drives me crazy is when people say pray for this country….THE ONLY TIME AMERICA PRAYS IS BEFORE WAR…AND BEFORE FOOTBALL GAMES…other than that u cant pray no where else but in church looking at Jesus (who lookin like Brad Pitt) look at all those christians dancing in the street (they’ve switched places with muslims dancing in the streets) but ummmmm yeah God is def on our side…..
Christmas (not even Christmas Happy Hoildays) ur kids cant pray or take a bible in school….but yeah God right there with us…the land of sex …drugs…and rock n roll…but yeah God dont see none of that….

I don’t rejoice in someone’s death it is inappropriate it breeds more barbaric behavior among us – I put everything in GOD’s hand so therefore I knew Osama would meet his fate! But I just like Osama will meet my fate which is why I don’t rejoice in his death!

Bush coulda BEEN killed this fool. They been sayin he was in Pakistan every since 9/11.

I think the time was just right to get rid of him. They disposed of the body in “proper Muslim fashion” so as not to give other Muslim nut cases a reason to go off.

It was a no-win situation from the beginning for Obama and the U.S. There is no trust there and no matter what happened he was either going to come off looking like a murderer (to those against America) or as passive (to Americans that wanted him dead).
